Former Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino is eyeing a return to the Premier League after a shoddy start to life in Saudi Arabia.
Firmino, 32, walked away from Anfield following his dwindling fortunes with the club. After Jurgen Klopp signed Darwin Nunez from Benfica and Cody Gakpo from PSG Eindhoven, Firmino lost his first team role with the Reds.
He cut a frustrated on the bench and was linked to a possible exit from the club when his deal expires. Despite his plummeting fortunes with the Reds, Jurgen Klopp reportedly wanted to keep the Brazilian forward. Notably, Firmino maintained his prolific goalscoring run and had more goals than Darwin Nunez despite starting mostly from the bench.
He signed off at Anfield on a high, scoring the equaliser that saw Liverpool share spoils with Arsenal in the Premier League at Anfield last season.
At the end of 2022/23 season, Roberto Firmino left Liverpool and made the list of top Premier League and European stars who left for Saudi Arabia. He joined Al-Ahli on a free transfer, signing a three-year contract with the club.
The former Hoffenheim and Bundesliga attacker got off to a prolific start with Al-Ahli, scoring an hat-trick in his Saudi Pro League debut.
Far from a groundbreaking start to life in the Saudi Pro League, Roberto Firmino is now struggling to find the back of the net for Al-Ahli.
He has played 17 league matches for the club, and is yet to score again since his debut hat-trick. Sources close to the player have revealed he is open to Premier League return just six months into his three-year contract.
According to talkSport, Firmino is set for a move to the Premier League with Fulham and Sheffield United interested in the former Liverpool forward.
The Mirror reports Al-Ahli could be open for a loan for the Firmino as the Brazilian sets sight on Premier League return.
